GoFrogs: Banogu Named to Hendricks Award Watch List

CHICAGO -- TCU's Ben Banogu has been named to the watch list for the Ted Hendricks Award, which honors the top defensive end in college football.

Banogu, the 2018 Big 12 Preseason Defensive Player of the Year, was first-team All-Big 12 and the Big 12 Defensive Newcomer of the Year last season. His 8 1/2 sacks ranked second in the Big 12, behind only teammate and current Buffalo Bill Mat Boesen (11 1/2). Banogu's 16 1/2 tackles for loss led TCU and were third in the Big 12. The senior from McKinney, Texas, had at least one TFL in 13 of 14 games. He also forced three fumbles on the season, including on sacks in consecutive road wins at Arkansas and Oklahoma State.

Banogu also appears on watch lists for the Chuck Bednarik Award, Bronko Nagurski Trophy and Wuerffel Trophy as well as being a nominee for the Allstate AFCA Good Works Team.

Former TCU defensive end Jerry Hughes, a two-time consensus first-team All-American, was the 2009 recipient of the Ted Hendricks Award.
